FCV-1900
The Furuno FCV-1900 Black Box Dual frequency sounder is a powerful, dual-frequency Fish Finder designed for serious fishing boats and amateurs. It comes with 1-3kW transmitter, and a broad range of operating frequencies from 15 kHz to 200 kHz. This allows you to easily replace any older sounder while keeping the same transducer for convenience. The simple to use control unit features a water resistant touch pad that works even when wearing rubber gloves. You can use the touch pad for setting up VRM and TLL in an instant.
The FCV-1900 can be upgraded to chirp or fish sizing versions which offer enhanced clarity, larger frequency choice and the ability to count the number and size of fish in an area.
Display up to four different frequencies together by connecting a network Fish Finder. When connected to the BBDS1 you gain the bottom discrimination function, which indicates whether the bottom is composed mainly of rocks, gravel, sand or mud. This information aids in identifying seabed and which species are present.
